- Well bores are most commonly drilled using a rotary bit connected to a string of drill pipe.
- the drill pipe and bit are rotated and a drilling fluid, most often a water base gel with or without weighting materials suspended therein, is circulated downwardly through the drill pipe, through ports in the drill bit and upwardly through the annulus between the drill pipe and the walls of the well bore to the surface.

- a reservoir of circulating drilling fluid is maintained on the surface, and the drilling fluid is pumped from the reservoir by circulating pumps back into the drill string.
- the drilling and the circulation of drilling fluid are stopped, the drill pipe and bit are removed from the well bore, subterranean formations penetrated by the well bore are usually logged and pipe to be cemented in the well bore is run therein.
- a primary cementing operation is carried out whereby the drilling fluid in the well bore is displaced out of the well bore by a cement slurry and one or more liquid spacers which are typically pumped downwardly through the pipe and then upwardly into the annulus between the pipe and the walls of the well bore.
- the cement slurry hardens into a substantially impermeable solid mass in the annulus which bonds the pipe to the walls of the well bore and seals the annulus whereby formation fluids are prevented from flowing into the annulus, between subterranean zones penetrated by the well bore and/or to the surface.
- the drilling fluid which is displaced from the well bore during primary cementing must often be disposed of as a hazardous fluid under environmental protection laws. Such disposal is time consuming and expensive, particularly at offshore drilling locations where the used drilling fluid must be displaced into a tanker, transported to shore, unloaded and disposed of on shore in an environmentally safe manner.

- the compositions of this invention including drilling fluid are particularly suitable for primary cementing since they eliminate incompatibility between the cementing composition and drilling fluid remaining in the well bore. Drilling fluid remaining in the well bore becomes a part of the cementitious composition which results in better bonding of the cementitious composition to the walls of the well bore. Also, as mentioned above, the use of a portion of the drilling fluid in the cementitious composition used for primary cementing reduces the volume of drilling fluid which must be disposed of.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates generally to cementitious compositions for downhole use in a well.
- A variety of drilling fluids are used in drilling wells such as oil, gas and water wells. The most commonly used drilling fluids are solids-containing water base gels which can be weighted with particulate weighting materials such as barite. After a well bore is drilled during which the drilling fluid used is circulated through the well bore, the circulation of the drilling fluid is stopped while the well is logged and a string of pipe, e.g., casing, is run in the well bore. After the pipe is run, the drilling fluid in the well bore is conditioned by circulating drilling fluid downwardly through the interior of the pipe and upwardly through the annulus between the exterior of the pipe and the walls of the well bore while removing drilling solids and gas therefrom.
- The next operation performed on the well is usually primary cementing, i.e. the string of pipe disposed in the well bore is cemented therein by placing a cementing composition in the annulus between the pipe and the walls of the well bore. The cementing composition is permitted to set into a hard substantially impermeable mass in the annulus whereby the pipe is bonded to the walls of the well bore and the annulus is sealed. When the cementing composition is run down the pipe and into the annulus, the drilling fluid in the pipe and annulus is displaced therefrom. The used drilling fluid is generally accumulated in a pit or tank and then disposed of.
- The disposal of drilling fluid is time consuming and expensive, particularly in offshore drilling locations, in that drilling fluid often must be disposed of as a fluid which is hazardous to the environment. Thus, any environmentally safe use to which all or part of the drilling fluid can be put at a well site is highly advantageous since it eliminates the need for disposing of all or part of the drilling fluid.
- We have now devised some improved cementitious compositions for use in well cementing operations are provided. A portion of the drilling fluid used to drill a well can be utilized as a component in the cementitious compositions. Any drilling fluid which is not utilized in the cementing composition can be disposed of conventionally, or it can for example be incorporated into a cementitious composition of this invention, placed into an environmentally safe location and allowed to set into a hard environmentally safe cementitious mass therein.
- According to the present invention, there is provided a cementitious composition which comprises a cementitious material selected from Portland cement, high alumina cement, slag, fly ash, condensed silica fume with lime, and gypsum cement, and any mixture of two or more thereof; a hardenable resinous material selected from vernonia oil, epoxidized linseed oil or soy oil, acrylic resinous materials, epoxy resinous materials and phenolic resinous materials, the resinous material being present in said composition in an amount of from 1% to 50% by weight of said cementitious material; and water present in said composition in an amount of from 20% to 175% by weight of said cementitious material.
- The invention also provides a method of cementing downhole utilising such a composition.
- The invention further particularly includes a cementitious composition as defined which further includes drilling fluid.
- The cementitious materials which can be utilized in accordance with the present invention include Portland cement, high alumina cement, slag, fly ash, gypsum cement and other similar materials. A variety of single component and multicomponent hardenable resinous materials can be utilized including acrylic, epoxy and phenolic resinous materials. The hardenable resinous material is generally included in the composition in an amount in the range of from about 1% to about 50% by weight of the cementitious material therein.
- The methods of this invention basically comprise the steps of forming a cementitious composition of the invention, placing the cementitious composition in a desired location and permitting the composition to set into a hard environmentally safe cementitious mass therein.
- Well bores are most commonly drilled using a rotary bit connected to a string of drill pipe. The drill pipe and bit are rotated and a drilling fluid, most often a water base gel with or without weighting materials suspended therein, is circulated downwardly through the drill pipe, through ports in the drill bit and upwardly through the annulus between the drill pipe and the walls of the well bore to the surface. An example of a water base gel is an aqueous solution of a clay such as bentonite containing particulate weighting material such as barite. The drilling fluid carries cuttings produced by the drill bit to the surface which are separated from the drilling fluid as is any gas therein. A reservoir of circulating drilling fluid is maintained on the surface, and the drilling fluid is pumped from the reservoir by circulating pumps back into the drill string. When the well bore has reached total depth, the drilling and the circulation of drilling fluid are stopped, the drill pipe and bit are removed from the well bore, subterranean formations penetrated by the well bore are usually logged and pipe to be cemented in the well bore is run therein.
- After the pipe has been run in the well bore, a primary cementing operation is carried out whereby the drilling fluid in the well bore is displaced out of the well bore by a cement slurry and one or more liquid spacers which are typically pumped downwardly through the pipe and then upwardly into the annulus between the pipe and the walls of the well bore. The cement slurry hardens into a substantially impermeable solid mass in the annulus which bonds the pipe to the walls of the well bore and seals the annulus whereby formation fluids are prevented from flowing into the annulus, between subterranean zones penetrated by the well bore and/or to the surface. As previously mentioned, the drilling fluid which is displaced from the well bore during primary cementing must often be disposed of as a hazardous fluid under environmental protection laws. Such disposal is time consuming and expensive, particularly at offshore drilling locations where the used drilling fluid must be displaced into a tanker, transported to shore, unloaded and disposed of on shore in an environmentally safe manner.
- The present invention provides improved cementitious compositions which can optionally include drilling fluid as a component thereof. That is, a cementitious composition of this invention including a portion of the drilling fluid used to drill a well bore can be used to carry out cementing operations in the well bore, e.g., primary cementing, cementing lost circulation zones in the well bore and the like. The compositions of this invention including drilling fluid are particularly suitable for primary cementing since they eliminate incompatibility between the cementing composition and drilling fluid remaining in the well bore. Drilling fluid remaining in the well bore becomes a part of the cementitious composition which results in better bonding of the cementitious composition to the walls of the well bore. Also, as mentioned above, the use of a portion of the drilling fluid in the cementitious composition used for primary cementing reduces the volume of drilling fluid which must be disposed of.
- The improved cementitious compositions of this invention basically comprise a cementitious material such as the hydraulic cements heretofore utilized in well cementing operations, water, a hardenable resinous material and, optionally, drilling fluid. When drilling fluid is included, the presence of the hardenable resinous material helps consolidate the drilling fluid and it provides additional compressive strength to the set composition.

When a fine particle size cementitious material is used, the cementitious compositions including the material quickly develops gel strength after placement.
